Introduction

About the AiRanger SPL

Note:

The AiRanger SPL is to be used only in the manner outlined in this instruction

manual.

This microprocessor based level monitor is designed specifically for bulk solids and

liquid level measurement applications. A SPL level monitor, utilizing a single

Milltronics ultrasonic transducer (ordered separately), accurately monitors vessel

material level without material contact.

The

SPL

transmits electronic pulses to the ultrasonic transducer. The transducer

converts the electronic pulses to ultrasonic pulses which are emitted from the

transducer face in a narrow beam. The SPL measures the time from the pulse

emission, to receiving the reflection (echo) from the material. Using the time

measured, the SPL calculates the distance from the transducer face to the material.

The distance calculation is dependent upon the sound velocity within the vessel.

When a Milltronics ultrasonic/temperature transducer is used, variable air

temperatures are automatically compensated. For superior air temperature

compensation, a Milltronics TS-3 temperature sensor may be used. A simple

calibration feature compensates for

homogeneous

(consistent composition)

atmospheres other than air.

The SPL is capable of monitoring wheat in 60 m (200 ft) high silo's, acetone in 45

gallon barrels, or almost anything in between.

This material and measurement range versatility is accomplished by utilizing

Milltronics patented Sonic IntelligenceTM. Sonic Intelligence provides high

measurement reliability, regardless of changing conditions within the vessel

monitored.
